    So very true.

    There are a lot of unsung heroes in our world and not nearly enough appreciation and/or respect goes out to them all. :(

    So to add to your thought, I'd love to add nursing assistants, particularly working with Hospice patients. Having watched what they go through and how their work must affect them, along with how underappreciated they are. Thank you for being there and offering the TLC that your patients and families need.❤️

    Is it just my imagination or did participation in yon' forums crash dramatically after the new forum was updated? Like people took that as the "nail in the coffin" as it were and just vanished? This place seems more like a ghost town than it did the last time I went away for awhile and came back.

    I know, seems empty.
    The change was such a bummer,
    hope they come back.
    I still don’t like the changes overall but I am slowly getting used to navigating around.

    I think it'll take a bit for people to get used to it and then it'll be fine again. I know I gave it a few days for "working out some kinks". 😁

    What a *kitten* day. My mom is very unexpectedly undergoing triple bypass surgery all day today. She’s the best, most compassionate and positive person, and we could only be so lucky to strive to be even an iota more like her.

    Sorry to hear this. I hope the surgery is over and done quickly, its successful and she's back on her feet in no time 🙂

    Oh no :( Will be thinking of you and your mom, please keep us updated?? It's so hard not to worry and stress but keep in mind how successful they are with these surgeries.

    Sending good and peaceful thoughts and lots of ((HUGS))

    Thank you guys so much - I know, as far as open heart surgeries go, it's a pretty routine one to undergo. It was just so unexpected and discovered by dumb luck. My poor dad is a wreck - luckily my 2 other sisters are local to my parents and they're both right by his side being rock stars. My mom's an incredibly strong person. Everyone at the hospital has been saying over and over how she's a perfect candidate because all of her other health markers are fantastic 💝

    She'll be fine, I know - it's just so nerve-wracking.

    There's growing unrest in my department, and my boss' boss is asking for individual meetings with each of us to discuss said unrest. For context, my boss is the head of the department, and his boss is #2 in the division.

    What it comes down to is us talking poorly about the boss and about the division, but I'm not sure she realizes that. So, what to do... Talk honestly and potentially burn bridges, or keep my mouth shut but enable the bitterness and resentment.

    This is so tough. I think, if it were me, I might test out the waters with something relatively small / safe to gauge the reaction.

    Why are people talking poorly about the boss / division? Is it a personality conflict? Ineptitude?

    Putting this here instead of in the serious thread because it's more an internal quandary and less something that would lead to serious issues (for me, anyway):

    Why is it that I don't hate myself (either in what I can do or how I appear) until I see other people and realize how drastically short of the non-existent goal post(s) I've fallen?

    I don't not like my appearance or how I feel about myself.. until I see people my age and how much better they all look than I do.. and how frumpy/fat/slouchy/insert whatever you want here I am in comparison.

    Same with everything else. What I *should* be doing with my life vs. how my life actually is going. I don't *mind* my life or how it's going.. until I see other people and all the cool things they've accomplished by my age.. and again, how drastically short I am in comparison.

    I know comparison is the thief of joy and all that, but why do I not feel like this *all* the time? It's only when I'm around other people. When I'm alone, working on a project, exercising, watching films or playing a game I don't feel this way at all. I'm (mostly) content. So why does it change *just* by pure introduction of a person?

    All it's telling me is that I should be a hermit in the woods.

    Maybe its that when you are doing things that occupy your mind like a project, watching a movie etc your mind doesn't focus on what you perceive as shortcomings...its busy concentrating at the task in hand. 🤷‍♀️

    Tell the truth. Whatever that might be.
